273 Chapter 272 proof of allegiance

Kong Tong’s funeral was to be held two months later, but Lu chaoxi had arrived half a month in advance.

Lu chaoxi stayed with Li Yanling for two days after they arrived at xuanqing peak. Then, Yun Xuan came to visit them in secret.

He brought a piece of news:

“Zhao Zhengdong is planning to rebel and escape.”

Zhao Zhengdong was a member of the Zhao clan of peace. After Zhao Zidan’s death and the destruction of the Zhao clan, he had immediately brought the power of the Zhao clan to join the faction of the sect master.

However, the Zhao clan was still a clan of cultivators. Even if he was the leader, he couldn’t decide the position of everyone. Some of them were once cultivators from the Zhao clan and came from small to medium-sized clans in anling. Later on, they gradually became close to the Lu clan. Some of the cultivators from the aristocratic families gradually changed their stance to the side of the hai family, while a large number of people from the humble families gradually became true members of the sect leader’s faction.

As time passed, the number of people who could truly unite with him and the few middle-level and high-level cultivators surnamed Zhao became fewer and fewer.

If that was the case, the cultivators of the Zhao clan wouldn’t have thought much of it.

However, it was clear that sect leader Kong Tong could no longer lead the sect leader’s branch to fight against the Lu family. In fact, the sect leader’s branch had even begun to gradually surrender to the Lu and hai families within the next ten years. As such, they no longer had any room for fantasy.

If they had been hesitant before, not knowing what to do next, then Kong Tong’s death was like the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

They could only choose to leave the sect.

Lu chaoxi was no longer interested in finding out how Yun Xuan had found out about this.

However, Lu chaoxi was very interested in Yun Xuan’s thoughts on this matter.

“What should we do, senior brother yunxuan?” he asked. You’re the sect’s discipline Hall’s chief, so I want to hear your opinion on this matter.”

Perfected yunxuan glanced at Li Yanling, who was sitting at the side with her eyes closed in silence, and sighed.”The matter of betrayal can not be tolerated. We must stop them and punish them. However, Zhao Zhengdong has extraordinary abilities and is at the peak of the initial enlightenment stage. If I were to stop him by myself, I’m afraid he might have a chance to escape.”

so, senior brother yunxuan, you want me to go with you? ”

This was something that perfected yunxuan had not expected. From what he could remember, Lu chaoxi had only just entered the initial enlightenment middle stage. At least he was still at the same level during the battle in the North barren forest. Now that ten years had passed, Lu chaoxi was only at the fifth level of the initial enlightenment stage at most. Against Zhao Zhengdong, an expert at the peak of the initial enlightenment stage, this level of strength would not be of much help.

Lu chaoxi had no intention of explaining. He looked at his wife, who was beside him.”Yan Ling, are you interested in going?”

“Then let’s go.” Li Yanling slowly opened her eyes.

Yun Xuan’s heart settled.

......

To Li Yanling, hunting down the sect’s traitor was a good opportunity for her to establish her prestige as the sect leader.

Moreover, the Zhao family had handed over the hilt themselves.

Of course, such an operation should be carried out as soon as possible.

On the second day, the sect’s discipline Hall had already begun preparations to make their move on Zhao Zhengdong. Perfected yunxuan was the Supreme Commander of this operation. Under his arrangements, the locations of almost all the cultivators of the Zhao clan suspected of betraying and fleeing had been figured out in advance. The elite cultivators of the discipline Hall had also surrounded the residences of these people.

They were prepared to take care of the problem before Zhao Zhengdong and the others could escape.

The main battlefield was xiaozhuan peak.

Xiaozhuan peak was a relatively remote spirit vein in the Qingfeng mountain range, but it was also at the level of a level three spirit vein. More than half of Zhao Zhengdong and the other core cultivators of the Zhao clan were gathered here.

They were still very vigilant.

They had already noticed it when the cultivators of the discipline Hall had begun to surround them.

Sitting in the main hall of xiaozhuan peak, Zhao Zhengdong’s face was gloomy. historical

Below the stage, a member of the Zhao clan said to him in fear, ” “Big brother, let’s just surrender and explain to the sect. Maybe we can still live.”

Another person retorted,”it’s stupid to have such an idea. Look at those people from the discipline Hall outside.” With such a formation, how does it look like they’re giving us a way out? In my opinion, it’s better to fight them to the death!”

“How can we win? Aren’t we just courting death?”

“Then we have to bite off a piece of their flesh before we die. Let them know that even old dogs have a few teeth!”

He listened to the chaotic quarrels below. Zhao Zhengdong did not say a word.

He knew that everything was over.

If Yun Xuan was the only one outside, they would still have a chance. However, it was almost certain that since the discipline Hall had already made a large-scale move, it was impossible for Yun Xuan to be the only one who had come.

this matter had definitely been reported to Li Yanling. As long as this golden core cultivator made a move, they would not be able to leave the Qingfeng sect’s territory alive.

Of course, Zhao Zhengdong knew how the news had been leaked.

He had already done it meticulously enough, but how difficult was it to hide such a thing from everyone beforehand? They were all in the sect now!

They had to prepare the materials for their escape and build up connections so that they could gradually arrange for their people to leave the sect. Especially later on, in the process of leaving the sect, it was almost impossible to be absolutely safe and not be discovered, not to mention being pursued by the Tao Wu.

If he wanted things to go as they wished, he could only rely on one person-Yun Xuan.

As long as yunxuan Zhenren acquiesced, turned a blind eye, and let them go, things would be much easier. Yun Xuan was the chief of the discipline Hall, and all kinds of information within the sect ultimately gathered in his hands, so he had great power. As long as Yun Xuan tacitly allowed them to leave, they would be able to leave the sect with ease. Even if they were still pursued, the people who came were most likely from the discipline Hall. Even if it wasn’t, the smooth progress at the start would buy them more time to escape.

Moreover, as long as they left the sect, there would naturally be someone to receive them when they were outside.

Zhao Zhengdong was not a fool. He was not willing to defect. He had already contacted the forces outside that he could rely on.

The Zhao family of Yan city.

The Zhao family of Yan city was one of the four great aristocratic families of the Great Yan Dynasty. It was a true-blue, top-notch wealthy family, the most loyal subject of the Yan Emperor, and the head of a family. Usually, they would take on the position of one of the three Ducal Ministers in the Great Yan Dynasty. The current head of the Zhao clan, Zhao Guang Xin, was the Imperial Censorate of Great Yan Dynasty, one of the three councilmen.

Hundreds of years ago, it was hard to verify why the Zhao family in the capital of Yan had split up and come to the Feiyun state in the North. But now, since their main clan had been destroyed, and they, the cultivators of the Zhao clan, could no longer stay in the Qingfeng sect, returning to the Zhao clan of Yan city was not a bad choice.

Of course, Zhao Zhengdong knew that after being separated from the family for so many years, it was impossible for them to be treated as family members when they returned. However, looking back at the ancient times, both of them had the same blood flowing in their bodies. It was still better than being an outsider.

Moreover, after their initial contact, the other party also expressed their welcome to their return. He also promised that after they left the Qingfeng sect, he would pick them up in the South of Guangyang County to help them leave the Feiyun state.

It was a pity that it seemed like Lao AI’s escape plan had been terminated before he could leave the Qingfeng sect.

In fact, up until now, Zhao Zhengdong had not figured out why yunxuan Zhenren would sell them out. What good would this do to Yun Xuan?

...

Perhaps a Pledge of Allegiance could be considered one of them.

However, Zhao Zhengdong had not expected Yun Xuan to be so decisive in his actions, completely disregarding their past friendship.

Before this incident, he had always thought that Yun Xuan would hold a grudge against the Lu and hai families.

But it was too late to say anything now.

Surrendering meant certain death. He believed that with the Lu family’s influence in the sect, they could almost completely decide how to deal with this matter. Given the past grudges between the Zhao clan and the Lu clan, how could the Lu clan possibly let them off?

Just as he was thinking, a cultivator rushed in from outside the hall and said in fear, ” “The people of the discipline Hall have already started to break into the mountain Gate!”

Zhao Zhengdong took a deep breath, summoned his magic sword, and strode out.

“Cultivators of the Zhao family, fight the enemy with me!”

......

They shouted with high morale, but they were beaten up the moment they stepped out.

Zhao Zhengdong could not even see where his enemy was.

...

As soon as he came out, he was prepared to shout,”who dares to fight me?!” Then, he would have a soul-stirring decisive battle with an enemy. It didn’t matter if he won or lost, he would have the spirit to do so.

However, after he came out, he didn’t even have the chance to shout. A thick fog enveloped him.

He couldn’t even see his fingers, and even his divine sense couldn’t extend out too far. It was only limited to five feet around him.

This made him feel very uncomfortable.

According to the average standard of an initial enlightenment cultivator, they should be able to sense everything within a radius of several hundred feet with their divine sense. If an enemy came from hundreds of miles away, they would be able to sense it beforehand.

When all of his senses had been compressed to the extreme, the feeling of being blind really made him feel helpless.

“Li Yanling’s condition has already reached this stage?”

Zhao Zhengdong had already mustered all his strength and was ready to respond to any attacks.

As for attacking? He had cultivated The Green Phoenix sword Scripture well, but what use was it if he didn’t even know where the enemy was?

Li Yanling’s attack had come too suddenly.

Suddenly, he felt a force from all directions invading his five-foot perception range. He poured all of his power into a defensive magical equipment to protect his body.

But that was meaningless.

All of the threats suddenly disappeared, and directly came from the front. He had used a high-quality magical artifact to form a defense, but it had been forcefully broken through. He suddenly saw a cold female face that seemed to be made of thick fog. It was 70% similar to Li Yanling’s original appearance, and it was almost directly facing him.

Immediately after, he felt a sharp pain in his head, and then his consciousness completely disappeared.
